Where’s Al?

Kind of a weird weekend up here. The weather guessers were hollering about a bunch of snow over the weekend and we got a little; maybe 3 inches or so. What they hadnt called for was the day and a half of rain and warm temperatures we’ve had. Rain…. Just enough to start melting the little snow we have on the ground and glaze everything. Now they’re talking -20 on Thanksgiving Day. Nothing like a 60 degree swing in the temperature….

Trouble with this picture is that the ground’s been frozen for a month. That means the water falling from the sky freezes when it hits the ground. I didn’t go into work today. It took the better part of 45 minutes to go less than 3 miles so I said to myself ” Self, you don’t get paid enough to fight this nightmare” and I turned around. I’ve managed to slip and fall in the driveway a couple times while walking the dog.

Tomorrow’s not going to be much better….I’ll leave way ahead of the idiots.
